My take on photography

Other people would define photography as an art. One would say it’s an special skill. Another may look at it as a past time while some would see it as a means to earn a living. What photography is to me is something different.

Photography has opened doors for friendships for me and that’s what makes me hooked on to it. The feeling of being with a family or circle of friends is priceless. It gives me a feeling of satisfaction and security. The concern of new acquaintances and friends makes my days wonderful. So I call photography a social process.

My social network broadened since I joined Nikon Club Philippines and took a photography workshop at FPPF. After I graduated from FPPF, I continuously meet new people. The social networks of my classmates were also opened up for me and I love the feeling.

New experiences keep coming with photowalks, trips and even a simple dinner or chitchat. I meet the family of some of my photography friends and see how warm they are. My recent week-end getaway to Quezon province proves so.

Producing great photos is the aim of every photographer and winning in photo contests too. Yes, it is fulfilling indeed if you got to grab awards and be recognized for the great works you produce. That’s part of this wonderful photography world. But having good friends for keeps is another story and that story is much more interesting =)
